Which celebrities will be in Chicago for the DNC? Here’s what we know.

The Democratic National Convention kicked off in Chicago Monday, and many are wondering what celebrities might pop up to cheer on Vice President Kamala Harris in her bid for the White House. So far, four hosts have been announced — Kerry Washington, Mindy Kaling, Ana Navarro and Tony Goldwyn — with one on each day, plus a few additional celebrities appearing at the DNC itself or events near the United Center. The hosts are expected to kick off the broadcasts and then return intermittently to help things moving.

In 2020, the audience-free DNC during the pandemic also had nightly hosts, including Washington and “Veep” star Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who gave a speech full of zingers. Celebs such as Andy Cohen, Diplo, Aubrey Plaza and Zooey Deschanel appeared at the digital after-party, while Billie Eilish, the Chicks and Jennifer Hudson performed in recorded videos.

In August, the Republican National Convention saw singers Jason Aldean and Kid Rock and professional wrestler Hulk Hogan stop by to celebrate the Republican nominee Donald Trump and share their own political views. (Or rip off their shirt, like Hogan did.)

Here’s who we know will appear at the DNC so far, and some chatter about who might show up elsewhere.

Tony Goldwyn

Goldwyn, who hosted Monday night, played a president on the ABC drama “Scandal” alongside Washington. He supported Hillary Clinton during her 2016 presidential campaign and joined President Joe Biden on the road for an event in 2023 before he dropped out of the 2024 race. Goldwyn also reportedly gave Biden advice ahead of his State of the Union address earlier this year.

Ana Navarro

Tuesday night host Navarro, a self-described Republican, has been promoting Harris and other Democratic candidates because she doesn’t support Trump.

“I can’t tell you how much it means to me,” Navarro said in a video posted to social media about hosting the DNC. “I’m a little refugee girl who fled communism, who fled Nicaragua at the age of 8, found freedom, found opportunity, found a home in America, and for me to have the chance to stand on that stage and help my girl, Kamala, make history and become the Democratic nominee, it’s just such a mind-blowing moment.”

Navarro often appears on CNN as a contributor, while also co-hosting ABC News’s “The View.”

Mindy Kaling

Many will remember Wednesday host Kaling as a writer-performer on “The Office” and as the star and creator of “The Mindy Project.” She’s also helped create a number of other television shows over the years, such as “Never Have I Ever” and “The Sex Lives of College Girls.”

Kaling and Harris were featured together four years ago in a 2020 video where they cooked masala dosa. Kaling told Harris, “I don’t want to suffer the consequences of our future president not liking my Indian food.”

Kerry Washington

Many know Thursday host Washington from her role as political fixer Olivia Pope on “Scandal.” But in 2012, she spoke at the DNC to support President Barack Obama’s reelection, and she hosted the 2020 DNC in a similar capacity to what she will do this year.

Washington has her own nonprofit, called Influence Change, which seeks out artists who want to work with their communities, and she’s often used her reputation to promote other issues important to her.

“There are so many issues that matter right now: climate change, LGBTQ rights, reproductive rights, education, health care, poverty, racism,” she told the Hollywood Reporter in 2023. “There’s so much that’s at stake, but all those issues can be impacted with democracy-building.”

John Legend

John Legend will headline a show at the Salt Shed, hosted by Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, on Tuesday, according to reports. The singer previously performed “Feeling Good” at the Lincoln Memorial during the inauguration ceremony for Biden and Harris.

Legend, a 12-time Grammy winner, increasingly has seen himself as an activist in recent years, championing police reform and voting rights.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus

Louis-Dreyfus will host a panel through the Democratic Governors Association that will aim to highlight female governors across the country, CNN reported.

The “Seinfeld” star played a vice president on the fictional HBO show “Veep” and has often supported Democrats and spoken about women’s issues.

Jon Stewart

“The Daily Show” already held a brief promotion outside Wrigley Field on Sunday. But Stewart is scheduled to host a live, already-sold-out episode from Chicago’s Athenaeum Center on Thursday. Stewart, who returned to “The Daily Show” for the 2024 election, hosted a live show after the presidential debate in June.

Rumored: Taylor Swift and Beyoncé

There’s nothing but rumors concerning the two music stars showing up at the DNC. Beyoncé’s name has been floated through multiple outlets, especially considering Harris has used “Freedom” in campaign ads and Beyoncé has performed at political events before, including ones for President Barack Obama. She performed “The Star Spangled Banner” for Obama’s inauguration ceremony in 2013.

Swift will wrap up the European leg of her “Eras” tour on Tuesday night from London, so there’s that. She hasn’t endorsed any presidential candidates yet, but she endorsed Biden and Harris in the 2020 election. Her name has been tossed into the political realm recently after Trump shared AI-generated images that falsely suggested Swift fans support his campaign.

For now, the speculation of Beyoncé or Swift showing up to the DNC remains simply that — wishful thinking for many fans.
